[00:-3.00]FATHER AND SON [00:-4.00]Most films these days are easy to describe [00:-5.00]because they fit into types such as martial arts films or love stories. [00:-6.00]But Father and Son is different. [00:-7.00]It is a film about the love and conflict between a father and his son. [00:-8.00]It is a film about real Hong Kong people. [00:-9.00]The film is set in Hong Kong in the recent past. [00:10.00]It shows us the life of the Law family during the 1960s, [00:11.00]when they were living in a squatter area, [00:12.00]and then in the 1970s,when they were living in a resettlement estate. [00:13.00]3.The two main characters are the father,Mr Law,and his son,Law Ka Hing. [00:14.00]Mr Law is a low paid clerk in an office. [00:15.00]He cannot get promotion because of his lack of qualifications. [00:16.00]Therefore,he is determined that his only son,Ka Hing, [00:17.00]should get good exam results. [00:18.00]Ka Hing,however,is not very interested in school work. [00:19.00]His only ambition is to make films. [00:20.00]4.The film starts with the tragic ending to the story. [00:21.00]Old Mr Law opens a letter from his son and his face lights up. [00:22.00]'At last,'he says.He rushes up the stairs of his resettlement block, [00:23.00]but he is so excited that he suffers a heart attack and falls down the stairs [00:24.00]A piece of paper drops from his hand and floats down to where he is lying. [00:25.00]It is his son's graduation certificate. [00:26.00]Just as he has achieved his life's ambition,he dies. [00:27.00]After this sad opening,the film goes back about 15 years, [00:28.00]to show us the early relationship between father and son. [00:29.00]The Law family is very poor,and the father works hard to support them. [00:30.00]Ka Hing's sisters do well in school [00:31.00] but their father is mainly interested in Ka Hing since he is the only son. [00:32.00]7.Ka Hing is fascinated by the cinema. [00:33.00]He always wants to watch films or to make his own. [00:34.00]He has such a strong love of films that it distracts him from his studies. [00:35.00]As a result,he finally fails his 'A' Levels. [00:36.00]Because of this failure,Mr Law decides that Ka Hing must go to America to study [00:37.00]To pay for this,he forces one daughter to marry a wealthy husband, [00:38.00]and the other to give up college and get a job. [00:39.00]Their loyalty is so strong that they accept his wishes. [00:40.00]Ka Hing is reluctant to go to America. [00:41.00]But finally he sees that his father will be heartbroken if he disobeys, [00:42.00]and thus he agrees to go. [00:43.00]The film is sad because it is partly based on the life of its brilliant director [00:44.00]Fong Yuk Ping. [00:45.00]Fong also had a difficult relationship with his father, [00:46.00]and studied film in America. [00:47.00]Tragically,Fong's own father and his mother were killed in a plane crash as they flew to America for his graduation ceremony [00:48.00]The film is always interesting to watch as it is very realistic. [00:49.00]The director's use of little details of everyday life is very good. [00:50.00]For example,we see Ka Hing (as a young boy) making a simple toy cinema [00:51.00]with a candle and a box,to show his interest in films. [00:52.00]This film shows us many things about Hong Kong family life [00:53.00]and problems which we can all understand. [00:54.00]It is a serious film,but it is also very entertaining and often very funny. [00:55.00]I would definitely recommend it.

[-1:-9.00]MORE LANGUAGE INPUT [-1:10.00]ReadingPage 74 [-1:11.00]Love Norrows The Gap As children approach adulthood, [-1:12.00]they often Find that they think differently from their parents on a number of issues [-1:13.00]beliefs and values,family and friends,work and study, [-1:14.00]career and life goals and so on. [-1:15.00]'Generation gap'is a term coined by sociologists [-1:16.00]in the 1960s to describe such differences between young adults and their parents. [-1:17.00]The generation gap is not limited to modern times. [-1:18.00]Documents from Ancient Roman times [-1:19.00]show that parents were concerned about their children not following traditions[-1:20.00]However,the gap is not always negative. [-1:21.00]Very often,the gap can help people realize their own problems, e.g. [-1:22.00]lack of respect,lack of communication, [-1:23.00]lack of tolerance of imperfection,and so on. [-1:24.00]Through efforts generated by love and understanding between parents and their offspring, [-1:25.00]problems get solved,personalities change, [-1:26.00]conflicts turn into harmony and the family thrives. [-1:27.00]In the development of human history,the generation gap is a very natural thing. [-1:28.00]A positive attitude and communication between parents and children [-1:29.00]will help close the gap.
